One way is to see Property, Stocks, Silver, Land, Wine, etc merely as financial instruments. As long as a person understands the market (eg. how each instrument is being traded, how the price fluctuates, etc etc) then it may be possible to make money from it. However, each instrument also has its ow...

Thanks Lootster. Interesting comparison between US, China & Malaysia. Here's my personal take on Singapore. 1) Ambitious For the BIG things that matter (eg. F1, IR, YOG) I think Singapore has done pretty well. 2) Education Overall, I think Singapore has done well, especially in terms of English,...

ha ha, I think this makes an original quotable quote :) Dennis, you're the rare gem in the market to offer such value-for-money seminars, no hidden agenda & FREE forum support so that we can continue to ask, learn and tap on your experience, as well as those of fellow forumers.

Sorry Dennis, I would beg to differ. I think this may be more about statistical literacy, rather than financial literacy. Anyway, I have indicated doubts about the figures in the article & what they represent. Because authors can always selectively choose the statistics that support their line o...

My friend shared this article with me, which I found quite interesting. I feel that it teaches us something about value. http://www.economist.com/node/16525240?story_id=16525240 It is NOT news that Singapore Govt Ministers are amongst the highest paid in the world today. But what is interesting from...

Hi friends, Those who are interested can google for "HYIP". It stands for High Yield Investment Programs. The structure is mostly Ponzi in nature. ie. newcomers feed those above & system collapse when insufficient newbies join the system to sustain payout to those who joined earlier. T...

For general knowledge & awareness. Somebody bothered enough to do up this webpage.
